[@wayneLua]

She's stunnig! Polynesian beauty.

[@SMTS1159]

I love her performance! The judges definitely got it right that year but this year wtf

[@dizzion3296]

Beautifully effortless!

[@9267reps]

I thought that was portrayed beautifully! - from the beginning with a graceful entry and the momentum picked up as she went through the various country performances. Yes, Ive seen better talent, like this performed in the past, but no denying she nailed each country cultural dance brilliantly, afterall I understand she ended up winning the whole thing..well enough said - Many best wishes Brittne at Ms Pacific 2015 in my homeland, the Cook Islands!!

[@theresamagi8948]

I loved it! Well done doll, you were awesome! 😃👌👍

[@norrinradd8923]

Is this Beautiful young lady Brittne Fuimaono Tongan or Samoan?

[@IzVesi]

flawless too tika

[@gillianseumanu8788]

nice nice that was really good

[@butterflyflyawayemoji2978]

tessi tolutau was the best heilala ever,she diffently knows how to dance and shes a beauty too

[@128onelove]

Tessi didn't compete in the Heilala, her sister did. Tessi performed in the Miss South Pacific.

[@islandgal123]

Then how could she have represented Tonga if she didn't compete to win Miss Heilala, idiot

[@faatoiaboy987]

Tessi Tolutau came to Samoa for the Miss South Pacific where I was involved in organising through Samoa tourism. She was friendly and I was fortunate to talk with her. She did the same series of South Pacific dances and I think she did it far better. Loved her and wish her all the best!

[@sialesamifua1745]

Amazing

[@kawasakialoitalau4782]

fantastic

[@waineebeauty7543]

Beautiful girl... Just wondering if she got permission from the Dalire 'ohana to use that snippet of their Merrie Monarch performance as her "hula" portion? Interesting take, but in my personal opinion Miss Heilala should epitomize the Tongan culture.

[@latufeaomoeata3781]

YES she did!

[@AT-wn1vh]

This is a talent show lol and yes she has my permission 😂😁😂😂

[@teya1324]

WaineeBeauty its a talent show... they have a separate competition for tongan dances

[@fakahokotaufa4222]

Just like Miss Makamaile from NZ she copied the Jungle Leolani studio dancing but who cares Its not about copying others moves its about how they do it and how they perform it aaand this Miss diid it how its done especially that flexible part in Hawaiian part its very difficult to do it.. And the fire dancing oooh its very risky maan.. Youre very talented Brittne..

[@davidfelila8206]

What part did she copy?

[@melikaveinga1559]

❤️❤️❤️

[@raneetablog]

Beautiful medley- Malo

[@lavi7nia]

She dances beautifully, no doubt about that. Just wish she did something a little more original. This talent didn't particularly stand out at all.

[@c.e8827]

Originality? She's half Samoan, half Tongan, living in Hawaii and dances the dances of Polynesia as her occupation. She's representing everything that she is. I don't know how that's not original? She's incorporating all aspects of her life. Hawaii is basically the melting pot of Polynesians. Her talent reflects that perfectly.

[@lavi7nia]

Jack Johnson that's great that she is and does all of those things. Again, we're judging her choice of item for the talent show, not herself as a person. There have been many contestants before her that have chosen this sort of item, the quick-change medley of 3 or 4 different Polynesian dances-in-1 (for example: Tessi Toluta'u did few years ago, and Sina before that.) In my opinion, the 1st part of her dance, the Hawaiian part, was the BEST part of her whole number. Had that been her whole dance, that would've stood out more. thanx for your response!

[@waineebeauty7543]

Completely agree with you! I know you said her Hawaiian part was the best part of her performance. Look up Keolalaulani Hopoe at Merrie Monarch '95- she completely took the audio and even part of the choreography from them. So shame. Beautiful girl, but her talent was not original.

[@c.e8827]

WaineeBeauty Regardless of what you all think her talent was awesome, and she won Miss Heilala, plain and simple.

[@tsheavenly]

at the end of the day you're not the judge so don't bother :)

[@butterflyflyawayemoji9467]

I think we do our pagents better than how Samoans do theirs in terms of talent, dance, showing off body, interviews, e.t.c, no hate Samoans you guys still rock

[@sigatoronibau7557]

she did a similar performance to miss south Pacific miss tonga 2007

[@latualofaki6139]

well that miss south pacific is also Tongan too but can you imagine Tongan are very creative

[@Zigvak]

[@BobKatterTheGreatMan]

No originality.

[@lavi7nia]

***** That's exactly what I said. Same sort of thing we've seen for the past almost 10 years. Too bad the Tongan judges don't seem to have appreciation for the qualities of creativity and originality. I absolutely loved the talent of Miss Apraxus NZ. Complete originality and it actually had meaning! Thanks for your comment, I'm glad SOMEONE agrees with me.

[@BobKatterTheGreatMan]

macknmango I question how the judging concluded with Miss Leiola winning overall. She has the physical beauty but I highly doubt she won hands down over the other contestants. Her interview was, by far, not the best, she faulted a couple of times during the tau'olunga, her island creation was extremely overshadowed by other contestants and THIS 'talent' segment (and I use the term 'talent' loosely) was a bore to watch. This competition has turned into a popularity contest. It belittles the value of the other contestants and perhaps discourage future Tongan women to participate.

[@lavi7nia]

Could not have said it better myself. Miss Heilala should epitomize the young Tongan woman of virtue, character, and intelligence to say the least. I agree with you, it's more of a popularity contest now. Shame.

[@sarnzp8244]

***** would you know any links to other performances from pageant?

[@BobKatterTheGreatMan]

sarnz pepz As a comparison to this or in general?

[@teinesamoa5668]

She is beautiful..but shouldn't won the miss Heilala..ONLY IN TONGA the judges didn't comply the with the criteria.They just picked the pretty face and end up somewhere at Miss South Pacific..MUST BE TONGAN..bad interview etc..
